Bo was AWESOME tonight!!! Especially when he sang that 2nd song with no band. He rocked! I think Bo will be the next American Idol!

I was impressed with Vonzell all the way through tonight's show. Like I said, she'd have 'em up dancin' when she sang "On The Radio" and she did far better than I anticipated.

Bo did okay on the a capella bit, but "Satisfaction" hurt my ears. Same for Carrie on "Cryin.'" It just didn't do it for me. But she kicked butt on "Makin' Love Out Of Nothin' At All" and "Man, I Feel Like A Woman."

Of course, only the judge's choice songs and "Cryin'" were the ones from the original list. :)

I think it'll be close between Vonzy and Bo, but Carrie will be in the finals.

And the jeans didn't hurt either.

Well tonight was fun! and interesting.....and the following are personal opinions from MYSELF....and please don't shoot me.

Vonzell Solomon- Great tonight! Very fantastic! I loved all three songs.....of course, the occasional blip, but nothing major at all. Super super super!

Bo Bice- Great first song! Second song-ew, what was he thinking!? I certainly hope a cappella isn't going to have a major place on his CDs...Third song was good.

Carrie Underwood- Great great great! Especially her second song! She made every song fit her and twisted it into the country/pop theme of herself. Super!

Tonight's Scores (out of 100)
1. Carrie Underwood- 97.3
2. Vonzell Solomon- 96.8
3. Bo Bice- 80.2

Overall Scores (some may not like this one)
1. Carrie Underwood- 92.1
2. Vonzell Solomon- 91.9
3. Bo Bice- 91.6

Edit: Score Edit For Bo Bice For Tonight.

BTW I have been in favor of Bo until tonight. That a cappella song was just serious yuck...I'm still trying to get over it.

Bo has more stage presence. He is more entertaining. I think Carrie needs to loosen up more. She is too stiff. She is a beautiful girl and she has a pretty voice.

Vonzell also has a great voice. And she moves a little more.

But, Bo takes the house. I love the way he carries his microphone all over the stage like he is dancing with it. It is just like you are at a "BO" concert.

My opinion: 1. Bo
2. Carrie
3. Vonzell

Actually I almost give Carrie and Vonzell a tie for second.

See, I disagree with you there. I wish he'd put the darn thing (the mic stand) down once in a while and just use the mic like most singers. Then again, Carrie needs to quit drumming her fingers over the mic all the time IMO. Just HOLD it like Vonzell does. If Carrie wants to "drum" to the beat, she can slap her thigh, snap her fingers, or drum her fist. I love Carrie, but I think she and Bo need to chill on the mic percussion and dancing.

Bo had the house since the beginning, but he threw it away with the band in the second song.

I thought the 3 of them each did very well.. It's a shame 1 of them will be leaving in less than 24 hours.. It's also a shame that I think it'll be Vonzell.

As much as I will openly admit I CAN'T STAND CARRIE ANYMORE.. I think too many people like her, which is why she'll advance to the final {where Bo will kick her butt lol}.

I want a Bo and Vonzell final but fear a Bo and Carrie final. By 9:30pm ET Wednesday, we'll know

Well... We have a real competition! Two strong songs from each..and some serious talent in all three.

I have to believe that Bo is the favorite...but our home is all about Carrie, still. Not much distance from either of those two for Vonzell.

Maybe the most talented final four in AI's 4 seasons.

We'll hear more from all three of them. One on the rock scene, one contemporary R and B, and the other on the country horizon.

It's been fun.

I thought Bo did a killer job with all three songs, especially the second song. It takes a big risk to sing without a band and I thought it did an excellent job with it.

I think Carrie didn't do such a great job. She is wooden on stage.

Vonzell did okay.

Not sure which girl will go through, but I think Bo will go through and be in the finals.

My two cents...

You're right, singing without a band takes a lot of guts.

I think Bo and Carrie will be the final 2.

As far as a performer who has been at the top of her game at every performance, I'd vote for Carrie.

As far as a performer who is willing to take chances, I'd vote for Bo.

I think Vonzell has really improved from the start but don't think she'll be there after tonight.
